Sulfuric Acid Burn Hazard may cause serious personal injury or death.The exhaust gas cooler may contain a small amount of sulfuric acid. The use of fuel with sulfur levels greater than 15 ppm may increase the amount of sulfuric acid formed. The sulfuric acid may spill from the cooler during service of the engine. The sulfuric acid will burn the eyes, skin and clothing on contact. Always wear the appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) that is noted on a material safety data sheet (MSDS) for sulfuric acid. Always follow the directions for first aid that are noted on a material safety data sheet (MSDS) for sulfuric acid.

Remove bolt (27) and bolts (28) from exhaust cooler (12). Note: The exhaust cooler should be supported as the bolts are removed.
Remove exhaust cooler (12) from the cylinder block. Installation Procedure
Ensure that the wiring harness assembly is correctly routed and the cable straps are not over tightened. Over tightening of the cable straps will damage the wiring harness and the convoluting.
Ensure that the exhaust cooler is clean and free from restriction. Ensure that the exhaust cooler is free from wear and damage. If necessary, replace any components that are worn or damaged. Note: The NRS exhaust cooler should not be disassembled or cleaned.
Ensure that all tube assemblies are free from restriction and damage.
